Hello everyone!

Thank you to everyone who made it to the Chipotle Spirit Night! It's always fun to see everyone dry and loading up on carbs the day before a meet. Next week's spirit night is at Fire & Stone in the Forum.

Today's away meet is against the Country Club of the South. There are going to be a lot of close races BUT please remind our swimmers of our team goals: Improve our swimming (therefore, swim the strokes properly!), have fun, and be a good teammate! Also, please make sure your child arrives by 4:30 PM in their BLACK team shirt. More details about the meet below:

In terms of WEATHER, the storms seem to be passing. CCS coaches and I have a weather plan. ASA rules require us to wait out storms for 30 minutes before rescheduling, canceling, or calling a meet. Please stay until an announcement is made after 30 minutes so that we do not have to cancel relays. Thank you!

I have attached the heat sheet, athlete check-in, and Swimtopia Mobile info. The Swimtopia Mobile app is great since it gives you live results AND RELAY CHANGES. I highly encourage you to use it rather than printing the heat sheet. Also, RELAYS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE. I may change the relays as late as right before the relay to ensure the relay is the best combination for the team and to ensure no DQs.
